An ugly feud between members of the California PUC and its executive director, Alice Stebbins, played out in public during an online hearing.

The California PUC greenlit a major expansion of the state's EV charging program and approved contracts signed by investor-owned utilities to procure 1.2 GW of battery storage.

Observers cited dependence on imports, underperformance of natural gas and wind, and market manipulation as possible causes of California’s recent blackouts.

CAISO and the California PUC and Energy Commission explained to Gov. Gavin Newsom why the state had two days of rolling blackouts recently.

The fall season when utility equipment tends to start fires is coming and regulators and reliability coordinators want utilities to be ready.

CAISO said millions of residents could be blacked out this week because it does not have enough power to meet demand during the heat wave.

CAISO’s proposal to develop new capacity products through its day-ahead market enhancements initiative may not yield expected benefits, a key skeptic says.

The California PUC opened a new proceeding to determine if investor-owned utilities should more rigorously assess risks from climate change and wildfires.

PG&E said it had completed its bankruptcy restructuring, one day after California enacted a law allowing the state to take over the utility if it fails to obey PUC rules.

The California PUC rejected a huge boost in megawatts for the San Francisco Bay Area that CAISO insists NERC and WECC reliability standards require.
